My sister and I came here to grab some delicious smoothies but decided on the açaí bowls! The wait times were long but the service was good. For the actual bowl the açaí did not have any flavor which was so strange! Not the best place for fresh smoothies and juices. read more

How about a refreshing coconut water after a workout class? You can definitely get that at juice generation. Drink your greens and veggies all in one spot. I chose the young Thai coconut water with coconut meat. This drink was refreshing , thirst quenching and hit the spot. The service was quick, the workers were friendly and the environment was a hip chill spot. read more

The food at Juice Generation is so fresh! They have the produce on display so you cam see them create your drinks. This establishment offers methyl options for New Yorkers on the go! The service was slow, but the environment was clean. Tha ambiance reminded me of a European market inside of a small store. Enjoy! read more

Love the smoothies from Juice Generation. They're fresh and delicious. The staff are friendly, too, and there's a small counter inside for dining in. The only downside is, the smoothies are $10.83 each including tax. I wish they had a smaller size for cheaper, so I could go more frequently. Yesterday after a barre class, I got the Smooth Strawberry, which includes strawberries, banana, apple and frozen coconut milk. It was nice and smooth, and I liked the subtle flavor of the coconut milk. Will be back again to treat myself to a tasty drink :) read more

the BEST Acai bowl i ever tasted in LIFE FRESH, tasty, delicious

This food has no taste there are NO options, and the food stained my shirt. People have an idea of your product has no flavor. I will NEVER RETURN. read more

The green guardian smoothie is absolutely amazing and so unique. It is impossible to find vegetable smoothies that have veggies other than kale and spinach. I think juice gen juices the other veggies then adds them to a blender to make a smoothie. It's so good and I get this smoothie every day from the bleecker location! read more

Cheap non organic ingredients. You get what you paid for. I got their purple pineapple. It was very citrusy. Not at all flavorful. Very blah. Not worth the $. Went in around 2pm and there was about 5 employees just all standing around playing with their phone. Yes. I can see that you're slow. But using your phone and not washing your hands and making our drinks is very unsanitary. Small space. read more

Juice Generation - Small Grapefruit Juce ($8.11) - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - New York, New York

This place always hits the spot. Whether I'm running in to grab pre packed juice or fresh, it's always amazing. The stuff is fast, kind and the little punch card app is nice to get rewards. It's a small little spot but I stop by all the time. Highly recommend! read more

This place is super cute! A couple of friends and I stopped by after biking around Central Park. It is definitely a great little pick me up! I ordered the Straight Up Watermelon. I wish they used more watermelon and added a little bit of ice. My friends both enjoyed their drinks :) The smoothies seem a bit overpriced for the size, but I'm sure they taste incredible. The shop smelled very appetizing. read more

After my daily workout in Central Park, Juice Generation wouldn't let me park my $3,000 bicycle inside for a few minutes, so I'll have to vote daily with my money for a different establishment to stay in business instead. Sorry, Juice Generation. I'm left immediately missing bike-friendly Juicy Cube. Juice Generation, once you rectify this inane policy, let me know, and I'll delete this review upon verification of the same. We'll both enjoy that. read more

I came here for some nutritional sustenance after the 4mile Japan Run 2017 in Central Park. The staff is really friendly and after feverishly searching for a nearby juice bar, I was happy to have found them. I like to get something healthy and filling right after a race. I was able to park right out front, run in to order and pay for my drink and had it made to my specifications, thanks to the suggestions of the woman who prepared it for me. The price is not too bad but you know you're in the city. All of their ingredients are fresh and they have a lot of alternatives to fit any diet. I was in and out quickly, on my way back home to stretch shower. read more

They use to be good years ago and I would still frequent them occasionally when in the area. However, this is the second time it's happened already and I can't deal with the incompetence! I usually order the supa dupa greens without celery and this is the second time they said ok at the register just to give me a blended juice with celery. Celery is so strong in flavor that if someone doesn't like celery, they can most certainly taste it in their drink when it's present. I for one, HATE celery and literally feel like i just wasted my money, again, on juice generation. I didn't realize my drink was tainted with one of my most hated greens til after the fact because I took it to go with me into the 72nd st train station. Ugh. read more

The service members were so patient to really rude customers. Super fast and great quality

I took a trip to Manhattan today to visit a friend, and I was craving something sweet, light, and fresh. So, I knew that stopping at a local fruit bar for an açaí bowl was a must. I ordered the aloha açaí bowl without bananas (I hate bananas) and it came with all sorts of delicious toppings like strawberries, kiwi, granola, coconut, and pineapple. It was definitely yummy and fresh tasting; however, it was not even close to being the best açaí in the city. Also, for this bowl and a small watermelon juice, I payed nearly 19 dollars which is kind of absurd in my opinion!! read more

Not a lot of organic options really on the uws. Thanks goodness for juice generation. There's a couple others but jg makes the uws.... More tolerable read more

TL:DR really nice customer service, but apathetic and somewhat inedible smoothie bowl. Ugh, Sadfac I loved Juice Generation the first time I came here, and the employees are all SOOO nice. Yet i still probably wouldn't come back and just opt for a smoothie at home. I paid $10.35+tax for an Aloha açai bowl. I asked for no granola or coconut as I just left the dentist, so I get if they dont want to add extra fruit. And it might look more sparse. However what I got was, under-ripe green mango- I would definitely get a stomach ate if I ate it, all of 2 super thin kiwi slices, and very under ripe, hard pineapple. I had to take the pineapple off as well, as I was avoiding very hard foods. The açai itself tasted good, but was very blah with now no toppings. The employees themselves were very courteous and friendly, however for some reason my order took much longer than anyone else's. Four *different* parties who ordered after me, received their orders first. I'm not sure why they made their orders first. At one point the cashier jumped in to help, and I was certain my order would be next- Nope! It was another person who ordered after me. At least there was a cute dog outside to look at. When I got home and saw my bowl, I was pretty disappointed. I sort of choose my smoothie places based on the standard set by red mango- a worker apologized to me for taking too long making my parfait- she was carefully picking the fruit as if it were her own meal. I'm not expecting that, but I would think such nice food service employees would not be apathetic to the fact they are giving inedible food to a real person, who spend ~$11 on it. I dont know, I'm a self proclaimed "picky eater".... but green mango AND under ripe pineapple? Would anyone else get a tummy ache? :( read more

Juice Generation - 2 thin kiwi slices and a very underripe mango :( $10.35+ tax - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - New York, New York

Friendly and knowledgeable staff that are as wonderful as their Lemon Lozenge drink! Spice it up with an extra dash of Cayenne to make an already delicious drink simply superb. Highly recommend this location for the freshest and sassiest drinks around! read more

Wanted a fresh smoothie so my friend and I decided to try out this place! I tried the Peanut Butter Split smoothie with almond milk because I wanted a smoothie with nut butter protein. It was pretty good taste-wise- super creamy and thick from the banana, however a little too peanut-buttery for me. I might've liked it if there was something else added like blueberries to kinda counter how heavy bananas + peanut butter are together. If you're the kind of person to ask for extra peanut butter on your smoothies this one might be for you. Portion size is super generous. Would come here again to try out another drink! read more

I frequent your 72 and Columbus location and the people could not be more helpful. It's a madhouse at times and Alina, Daisy, Raven, Beto and the manager Frankie are always soooooo patient and courteous and helpful. What a great location and what a great staff. The smoothies and juices are jus spectacular. My girlfriend and I get the PB & Joe AND the Watermelon Dragon and they are as close to perfect as possible. So is there Cold Warrior. Juice Generation, you are amazing and you are fortunate to have this team on your side. read more

In all the years I've been patronizing juice generation, I've always received orange wedges with my purchased defender shot. But not at this somewhat new location, on E.33rd and Park Ave. The employee looked at me like I was crazy and still didn't give me the orange wedges. Never going back to that location. read more

Came here and ordered a small juice. After paying, I realized there was a $1 difference to change it to a large. I asked to upgrade it. The cashier told me she refunded my old juice order, and charged me for a large. End of day later, I look at my credit card and there's a double charge on it. I go in the next day, and speak to a cashier about it and he told me that because it's the next day, there's nothing he can do about it and that charge has to stay. Overall lesson learnt, juice generation cashiers are here to pocket the extra cash and if they tell they're going to refund, I would double check your credit card statement to confirm. read more

Good juice, smoothie, and acai spot near Central Park to cool down with after walking around on a hot summer day. I was tempted to get a smoothie with almond butter or peanut butter but decided to get the Energy Kick instead. I was very satisfied with my drink! Fresh OJ, acai, blueberries, and a few other ingredients and it was very refreshing! My mom got the mango smoothie and my sister got the strawberry one. The mango smoothie tasted a little off and too sweet to me but the strawberry smoothie was good! I recommend this spot! They're acai bowls looked really good too! read more

This place is a fucking joke. I would give it zero stars if I could. It took 15 minutes for me to receive my order. Three people who ordered after me received their orders before I did. When I finally received my order this tiny ass bowl, which costs me $14.64, is what I was given. Taste like shit too. read more

Juice Generation is probably one of my favorites, if not most favorite, smoothie place in NYC. I go to Pressed Juicery for all my cold-pressed juice needs, but for smoothies, it's here. Yes, it's a little costly as are most fresh smoothie places in the City that aren't full of sugar and other meh ingredients (Jamba Juice), but sometimes it's worth the little splurge. Service at this particular location was friendly and the drinks came out in reasonable time, given the amount of people waiting. The store is a bit small and can get really stuffy. The floors were also pretty dirty with trash... but I can overlook that since I'm only in and out. My go-tos here are the I (heart? love?) Watermelon (watermelon + berries), for a refreshing, light, and fruity drink especially during the hot summers and the Green Guardian (avocado, chia, flax, hemp, spinach, strawberries, and swiss chard) for something a little more filling as as a snack. All their smoothies can be had with hemp or almond milk. You can also choose to add a sweetener such as agave, but make sure you specify how much - my drinks have varied in sweetness. Smoothies are pretty $$$ (and so are juices), but if you think about it, your fancy coffee could probably cost you almost as much, with less substance. read more

Absolutely love that freshness scent of goodness upon walking in. Seems like there is always a line of patrons waiting to place their order. Can't complain about the wait, as it's part of the process for wanting something healthy and delicious, but I would like to recommend going in numerical order when preparing the customer orders. I got my smoothie rather quickly, but I was with a friend who ordered a rockstar bowl right after I placed my order and she had to wait 5 minutes more than I did. We kept hearing other numbers after hers being served. Overall, great product! read more

After eating so much in the past few days my son and I just wanted a smoothie after our morning workout. Went up to the Juice Generation on 72nd to get our "breakfast" and was not disappointed. I got the Protein Knockout and my son the Peanut Butter Split and we both loved our choice. Well, blended, you could taste all the ingredients of the smoothie and it was filling. Being from the smoothie capital (Southern California) I was very impressed with the smoothie at Juice Generation. I can see why they have been around for 20 years and will be around for 20 more. read more

I am confused because I have been dying to try Juice Generation and was finally able to today. I got the PB Acai Bowl and the Watermelon EMTea. I wasn't impressed by either one and turns out this is the first acai bowl I've actually thrown away because I didn't like it. Not sure what the issue was and based on the reviews of the company, this doesn't seem to be the norm. I'm hoping they had a one off day and I will try them again another time and get something different. read more

The açaí bowl had zero taste of açaí....not sure if they left it out or only added a tiny bit but it just tasted like light purple frozen banana. Terrible value for $13. Took 15 min too; 5 other orders that were placed after mine were served before me. read more

Ordered a smoothie and was given a juice. The manager misheard my order and refused to make a new drink saying that I ordered the juice and not the smoothie. Why would I purposefully order the wrong drink? He refused to make another drink, still insisting I ordered the juice, and finally, one of the other employees said he would remake the drink after minutes of back and forth arguing. Pretty shocked by this experience as I've never been gaslighted by a store manager and then not offered a refund or a new drink. Most places would immediately offer to make a new drink, understanding that there was a miscommunication. I've been to this location several times and never recall dealing with someone that rude before. read more

Fantastic juices, made fresh from scratch at time of order! Highly recommend! Fresh squeezed OJ!

Definitely one of the most solid juice chains in NYC. This location is always so packed, but the clientele is forgiving and doesn't shove. (Hey, it's the little things!) I most recently opted for a Joyful Almond with with almond milk. It was delicious and filling without being heavy. The subtle cocoa from the cacao nibs with banana and coconut milk is certainly a winning combination. read more

One of my favorite smoothie spots when I'm in the city! Unfortunately, this location is quite small, but it's perfect for on the go. Service is friendly and fast! My go to is the Mucho Mango. If you want to make any changes to your smoothies, they're always willing to help. read more

Yep, they are what they say they are. Fresh, healthy, extremely efficient/fast, and great unique combinations. All of their juices are good. Some of their smoothies are more delicious/filling than others. This isn't the best I've ever gone to, but without a doubt the best in the area. If you're in the UWS stop by and order the Acai Extreme (this is my fav). If you're not counting calories order the Peanut Butter Split which is 460 cal, 18g of fat "/ yikes - however it is FREAKING AMAZING!!! :p Again, pretty much everything here is good, the prices are pretty high but so are most juice/smoothie places read more
